RPGM - Katalist [v0.098.2] [Tearycian]

To be honest I was not expecting much, just trying out different games. I'm writing this review with around 10 hours of play time. As a dude that loves erotic hypnosis / mindbreaking, feet, femdom; this game scratches all the itches. There's plenty of vanilla scenes in between. The combat is also a good break in between. And I love when I'm exploring random areas and find a whole new character to pursue. Or, experimenting in a battle and finding a new scene. It reminds me of the fun I had playing Karryn's Prison. Definitely one of the best games I ever played! Pro tip - if you get stuck, the guide is extremely helpful to find if you're missing any secrets.

probably one of my favorite games, with a great story and unique art style; it's a shame the developer is always MIA. only drawback would be the amount of time needed to beat some of the bosses, having an updated guide would be great since I've played up till the 0.0.97 version

If I weren't able to bring the two extra pixies along for the last fight against Peng, I would probably have really really REALLY deducted points from my review. Combat while varied and interesting, does seem as if it constantly has you at risk of being 1-3 shot, especially since enemies seem to scale with you. So if somewhat frustrating fights aren't your thing, reduce difficulty from Vanilla.

Apart from that, there is a LOT of cryptic stuff and a lot of plot stuff isn't fully explained, but having played to the end of current content I feel like that at least ties in to the general theme of you being an abused tool; kept in the dark, not told anything besides what is necessary, and just constantly being jerked around; hell, there's one stat tracking how many people you kill, and I didn't get why that was constantly increasing until near the end, which tied in nicely to making you feel completely in the dark.

Can't comment on the porn, graphics are nice but there is a distinct grotesque style to the succubi and most enemies that might not be your thing.

Has a fun story along with plenty of great sex scenes. One of the best femdom games I've ever played. Art style is both unique and aesthetically pleasing. Challenging at some parts put a little bit of grinding can get you past any of the bosses!

Kinda torn about this game. Please note I will treat this as a somewhat ordinary game experience even if full with erotic content as this kind of delivery of still images had me completely uninterested and many times annoyed (explained below).

The story is great, intriguing and interesting but with absolutely no option, you're following through a predetermined path. I say this because there is so much wasted potential because of the fact that it is so linear.
I understand it is tremendous amount of work to offer different paths and introduce options, decisions.

The combat is at times ridiculously difficult to the point that it forces you to cheat to advance forward. Upon losing in some cases you are forced to endure an un-skippable 1-2 minute barrage of the same still images garbage. And you're going to lose quite a bit of battles until you figure it out. So the first major nuisance for me.

Another great annoyance is the bizarre design decision to punish you if you level your character and as enemies advance somehow corresponding to your character but with no balance in mind, it reaches a point that it is impossible to win, especially during end game; or being forced to unlevel your character and your hard work going to waste.
The late game content has in my view been made in haste and is more of an annoyance than anything else.

As a result, the necessity to cheat ripped away any sense of achievement and since the grind had itself been also proven fruitless by being punished by an unbalanced enemy level and poor game design, I cannot give this a higher rating.

To the good points I should of course add a lovely music selection with my favorite played at the hotel.
Great character design and writing of dialogues with plenty humorous responses and the content from characters that you will meet is very entertaining and quite immersive. But with the lack of non-linearity many dialogue options will have no consequence and lead nowhere. A pity for a game with such character design, writing and story.

This game is WAY too GRINDY. As a veteran rpgm player I downloaded this game thinking it would be a banger, but after experiencing this myself I can say it's poorly made. First, there's no text skip for one thing, so you have to click/hold through all text messages. Second, it's difficult to know what the player should do if you're not on the succubus quest.

Finally, my most hated thing is the Miss Mackey's quest. As one of the earliest characters you meet, it's also figurately one of the first characters you would try to unlock femdom scenes with. The problem with this is that I've been trying to unlock her full quest for the past 1hr 30min WITH A GUiDE!!! Imagine someone who doesn't have a guide and has no idea what to do, it would take them hours to figure out step 1/10 for Mackey's quest.

A lot of things are vaguely explained in this game like MV/ML/RE. Like the heck is that supposed to mean, and why should I remember it, I came here to fap.

Overall, it's just not enjoyable because the grind is way too much. The art isn't good either, but it's unique enough to draw interest. Therefore this game is a no for me and it's time to move on. (FYI the gallery doesn't work either).

Among all the porn games I have played, Katalist has an unshakable position in my heart. Both the art style and the background music fascinate me deeply, but what surprises me most is the plot of the game. It is no exaggeration to say that none of the porn games I have played can beat it in terms of plot. Even if it is placed in the pure plot RPG games I have played, it is still wonderful. There are a lot of foreshadowings buried in the game. The more you explore, the more you will feel that it is so wonderful.

Do you know when you finish a piece of media (series, film, game) and it was so good that you no longer know what to do with your life to entertain yourself? I'm EXACTLY like this.
I finished everything I had to do in this game so far (Version 0.97.6) and man, it was amazing!
I have some complaints, like some movements that the succubus make on you are very op's etc, but that's ok, so you can just change the difficulty of the game so you don't get stuck in that part and proceed calmly!
The art of the game, I must admit, didn't grab me at first, mainly because some characters have VERY exaggerated chests and butts, and I'm not a big fan of that, but the style of the game grows on you throughout the gameplay. Now I genuinely think it's one of the most beautiful femdom games I've ever played. The story is SUPER interesting, the plot is well written and the scenes are very well done.
The dialogues are fantastic, when they're meant to be memes, they're hilarious, and when they're meant to give tension, they leave you shitting your pants.
And the characters are just awesome. It's one of the rare games that you go into with your dick in your hand but end up too entertained and when you see it it's already 3am and you're still playing.
Besides that, this game introduced me to a fetish that I didn't think I had (Femboydom). I swear that at first, when I saw this option, I was intrigued, but mostly, I laughed my ass off. Then, when the game introduced Dominic, I was already sure that he would be the reason that toggle existed. And every time I saw him in the game I started to like him more and now I'm obsessed with him (haha, help...).
Anyway, I'm going to marry Dominic and I hope to see many more scenes with him in the future.
In general, this game has a little bit of everything in the highest possible quality for everyone. 10/10, looking forward to more updates.
If you like Femdom, please play this gem.

I used a translator to write this text, sorry if anything comes out strange.

Bye bye <3

Katalist is one of best games i had played better to say best rpgm one.

Game has Nice graphic and perfetct story line i like all characters specially miss cho and bunny cant wait for feature updates to submit to her.

I hope more fetish like chastity and ballbusting and new characters will be added to game.

This is the best femdom game u can get by far.
Its a masterpiece the art style is something else.
And it have a big story.
Story 5/5
Gameplay 5/5
Art style 5/5
Songs 1/5 tbh i played the game with no songs and its still masterpiece.
Its a perfect game (if u like femdom) .
As i said before a game with 0 problems except songs.
5/5.

One of the best femdom games out there. The story line is also really good, and becoming more and more interesting with every major update. Combat is pretty engaging if a bit grindy to see all the scenes. Strongly recommend.

I can say confidently that this is one of the best Femdom Games I have played ever, with amazing art style that is really unique and amazing soundtrack. Really love the type of H-scenes in the game as it has a lot of different and varying fetishes, and the vibes and aesthetics of the game are a whole another thing really loved them and the story line is interesting to say the least, never believed i would be interested in an H-game's story line but here we are.
In short: amazing game and any Femdom fan should give it a try
5/5

I think Katalist is my favorite game ! I love the story, i love all the characters in , i'm love all the foot fetish, socks fetish and all about that. I love all the defeat scene in it, each time you give something special to all of your character and i really like it. Alex is the best character in this game, can't wait to see the next !

I am enjoying the game, i am not much of a critic but here's what i think:
The story is great and simple, i liked the concept of being a Katalist, either win or get slowly mind broken.
The gameplay and battles are fun, many skills and equipment that makes you use different strategies for each enemy.
The art style is unique, it really grows on you the more you play.
The game offer many kinky stuff (basically feet and humiliation) which is my cup of tea.

8/10 would revisit it when it's finished.

TL;DR: turns from an enjoyable ToT-style femdom game into a story-heavy, gore-filled slog some way through.
But despite my frustrations with it, it's a decently made and unique-looking game with lots of feet-focused and ass worship scenes, with an artstyle that will either grow on your or completely repel you. For me it did both
So if you can stomach/ignore lots of (unskippable) gore, grinding, and lots and lots of talking and fetch questing, I'd recommend it.
If not, you're probably better off getting the gallery mod.


The start is good enough with plenty of scenes and decent pacing, and slow build-ups do work really well with some characters, but MAN does the game become a slog eventually.
Really not sure WHAT happened in the development cycle but there's a very noticeable shift about halfway through the story.
It seems to turn from an enjoyable,if a bit slow, femdom-focused ToT-style game (up to Bonnie) into
>60% talking with highschool dudes and zombies about wizards, conspiracies, rituals and death, holding enter key for literal HOURS to get through long talking scene after long talking scene
>35% fetch quests, walking through depressing gore-filled dungeons fetching the items you need to progress while having to dodge/fight trash mobs that also start draining your levels and just annoying you
>5% sexual content with less and less actually dominant or fleshed out characters and less scenes (usually 1-2 scenes per character, and none of them seem actually interested in dominating the main character, and even the old characters behave very casual and uninterested in sexual things all of a sudden)

There's also a heavy gore focus starting at that same shifting point for some reason. It eventually just becomes soooo much. I get that some people are into guro and gore but man is it a boner killer if you're not, with how much there is later on. it's just misery to walk through corridors and corridors of rust and blood and every second scene involves murder threats, serial killers, corpses, decapitation and half-eaten zombies or blood-covered people.

Genuinely really fucking good. Even if the dev doesnt understand the concept of time Katalist is clearly not another game made to leech patreon supporters money for as long as it can. The art is really well made and it shows how much the dev actually cares when they have gone back to fix some of the art that looked a little off. The main quest isnt currently very long but its high quality the entire time. The side content is where the game really shines though there is so much random stuff you can just find to do. The characters and story are shockingly good so far which is something I really would not expect from a fdom smut game. Most Importantly though It actually feels like a game. The combat is actually thought out in a way that makes it much more enjoyable than mindlessly spamming magic until your out of mp then spamming strike until you win.

tldr 9/10 very good not perfect because of some bugs.
(word of warning: Save often in different slots and back up your saves I encountered one bug in hotel vania that I had to use MTool to fix or be forced reload a save from 4 hours ago)

Very good art and the story is very good and interesting. However every patch I found a big that make the gameplay lazy or even stops you from continuing the story . Besides that the game is very promissory and I recommend to help Tearcyan.

I really like this game!

Okay first off yes you can tell this is a new/ lacking experience dev. And that's okay, everyone here is amature and I'm not gonna drop points because of that.

I really like the story and how they take their time on it, the beginning is a nice build-up. The combat is fine at worst and pretty fun at it's best. The art style really kills it for me, its something new and stands out compared to the rest of the femdom RPG bunch. Some folks might be turned off by it and what the safer typical animesic style but I welcome all new artstyles!

Keep up the good work I can't wait for further updates!

Game is awesome. I just need some more content that's all.

(If there is a feature in game that let You snick into the girls rooms and steal theirs shoes and socks maybe something more with this? Girl catching You sniffing her slippers or sandals and punish You for that? I would love that!

This is probably my favorite femdom rpgmaker game. Yes it's a lot of foot content but that's every femdom game but it also has lots of other content for each character. I also appreciate the fetish/content toggles and I think more games need this for people who want to avoid the more extreme fetishes like scat. At first I didn't think I'd enjoy the game because of the art style but it strangely grew on me over time and I felt like it captured the atmosphere of the game pretty well. Combat can be difficult but there are plenty of difficulty options you can play around with if you feel stuck on an enemy. A few criticisms I have for this game would mainly be the gameplay being repetitive at times and quite a few bugs, some of which are game breaking and need a restart or loading an older save. But these criticisms aren't unique to Katalist and apply a lot to games like Tower of Trample or Domina. If you're new to femdom games or have already played games like Tower of Trample or Domina I'd highly recommend playing.
